R.I.P. Life Magazine

A title synonymous with the words "photo magazine" finally ends. Time-Life Publishing announced the end of Life Magazine, with the last print edition being available 20-April. Despite three other "near deaths" starting in 1972, this retirement appears to be permanent as another printed publication succumbs to the onslaught and popularity of online journals and news sources. The accumulated ten million images over the history of Life's print run will be made available, ironically, online.
